Jealousies, and plain bloody awful

waterlogged sward of Nebraska Ftold
into a shambles, as they say In poetry
we believe).
Class football games are scheduled
lor this afternoon. Haughty seniors
propose to rub the juniors' noses into
.grass-Btain (alliteration, kid), and the
revengeful sophs will try and pay
hack some of the indignities offered
their brave 'band on Olympic day by
walloping the froshmon.
Original Football. '
Coach Stiehm's brand of football
dope is nil. No rules of the good old
game as demonstrated' by the pupils
of our Jumbo coach will bo seen to
day, but It is rumored that the two
winning teams are two of the speedi
est clasB organizations , that Nebras
ka's history holds, or has held.
8ecret and Shirtsleeve Practice.
' Dark and secret practice has been

But anyway you look at this gay
little game of football the two mixes
today aro going; to bo the real classy
and society brand of the athletics of
our modern college dayB, and besides,
the proceeds go to buy the faithful
players sweaters. Show up and pay
the wherewithal and got some point
ers on how it Is great to bo crazy.
Each and every player will appear
on the field in borrowed clothes or,
that is moleskins, and his face will
l)o the kind that is made in applied
mechanics. Both feet, will bo attached
when he starts and probably rooted
to the ground on occasions of the en
emy's end runs.
Rooting Regular.
Rooting will bo the only regular
feature of tho game. Regular cheer
leaders, with, calliope voices, arms
that run in circles in all directions,
and legs to match, will be on the field
to lead, the class rooters.,
Game Called Early.
The game will bo called at 3:00 and
MILITARY BALLJPLANS DEGIN

PLUM8 AT HAND8 OF THE
OFFICERS CLUB.
Nebraska's big game with Michi
gan on November 25 will probably bo
reproduced in moving plcturos. As a
mothod for advertising tho university
nothing could bo bettor, for with pic
tures of the great 1911 Cornhuskor
aggregation and a phonographic rec
ord of the rooters' efforts, traveling
up and down the state, nothing but
physical inability could keep great
crowds of additional students from
coming to tho university next Septem
ber.
Stiehm Endorses Plan.
Coach Stiehm . was enthusiastic
when asked as to his opinion. "Noth
ing could please me or the team indi
vidually better than to appear on tho
moving picture screen in a game with
the best team Michigan has ever put
out. It would make the boys feel that
their efforts to give Nebraska a rous
ing good team were being appreci
ated." Varsity Likes the Idea.
A number of the members of the
team were asked as to thoir ideas on
tho scheme and all thought it would
be groat. "Why," one of the regulars
who made his N in 1910 said, "If they
did this wo would have so much foot
ball material here next fall that the
Missouri Valley championship would
be certain for another year. It looks
to mo ub though this ought to have
beon done long ago."
As the Chancellor is out of tho city
nothing definite can be learned as to
his approval of the scheme as yet, but
as it will not cost tho university a
cent, the films more than paying for
themselves by their exhibition, it is
probable that he will arrange at once
for tho taking of the pictures.
Kansas Ib having moving pictures
taken of the Kansas-Missouri game to
be played tho same day as the Nebraska-Michigan
game, and if Ne
braska lots this opportunity go by she
will he dropping behind Kansas in the
advertising game.
A. L. Newman was olected chair
man of the military ball commlttoo
and Dana Van Ouson waFsoloctod as
master of ceremonies at a mooting of
the regimental officers last night.
Tho military ball Is one of tho big
events of tho collego year. Tho com
mittee on all-university affairs has set
December 15 as the date for this
dance, but some opposition has arison
among tho ofllcors to this arrangement.
This big event wub held In April
last semester and many of tho stu
dents think that it is preferable to
hold it next Bprlng rather than Do
comber 15, which is less than a weok
before tho Christmas vacation.

INNOCENTSJOOST CLUB
ORGANIZATION OF METROPOLIS
ASSOCIATION NOW ASSURED
HOLMES TO PRE8IDE.
With the Innocents boosting the
preliminary meeting of the proposed
Omaha club, the success of the meet
ing is assured. It is to be held Tues
day morning at 11:30 o'clock in Me
morial Mall.
Members of the senior men's organ
ization declare they believe the pro
posed olub will greatly benefit the
university and swell its enrollment,
if formed as suggested by its boaters,
not as a political or. social club, but
with tho solo purpose of securing
more students from the vIcinityof
Omaha and tho eastern .part ot the
stato for the university.
"The club Is just what, has ; been
needed; for years," declares one of the
Innocents who is not from Omaha.
"Similar clubs of students from, other
parts of the state ought to bo formed
along the same lines, without polit
ical and social intentions."
Searle Holmes of the Innocents will
preside at the- mooting next Tuesday.
A member of tho faculty states that
honor in scholarship has grown hero,
but that thero Ib further need of "fair
play."
Case Up Before Authorities.
A case is up before the authorities
where a freshman girl copied a rhet
oric theme from a magazine. It was
so crudely disguised that she was at
once detected, and when brought be
fore the dean, she did not seem to
realize tho gravity of thq offense.
Idea Gotten From Upperclassmen.
"The fact that she got the idea from
an' upperclaBS woman to whom she
went for advice shows tho need of a
shouldering of responsibility by upper
classmen In the further development
of our honor system," said ono' mem
ber of the delinquent committee in
discussing tho case.
"Now during the pressure of mid
semester examinations Is a good time
to emphasize the university's attitude
toward such matters. I would show
less mercy in the case of an offense
of thiB sort than of failure in studies."
